Agreement. 
 6.6 Commercialization Licenses. The granting of licenses by one Party to the other in regards to the commercialization of
Intellectual Property arising from the activities conducted pursuant to this Agreement and in respect of a Party’s background Intellectual Property shall be governed by the terms and provisions of the Additional Exclusive License Agreement.

 6.7 Avoidance of Third Party Rights. Subject to Section 6.10, neither UHN nor the Principal Investigators shall knowingly engage
in any activities, on their own or in collaboration with a third party, or use any third party facilities or third party Intellectual Property in performing the Additional Research Program which could result in any claims of any ownership interest
in any inventions being made by such third party, without MBI’s prior written consent. 
 6.8 Intellectual Property Representations and
Warrantees. The Parties acknowledge that neither Party makes any representation or warranty with respect of the following: 
  

	(a)	whether any third party may have any right or interest in any Intellectual Property arising out the Additional Research Program; 

  

	(b)	whether any Invention will be covered by any Patent or Patent application or any other form of Intellectual Property registration. 

 The Parties further acknowledge that it may be necessary to reach agreements with Third Parties in order to permit the use and exploitation of the results
of the Additional Research Program and of any Intellectual Property arising therefrom. To the best of the knowledge of UHN as on the Effective Date, neither UHN nor the Principal Investigators are aware of any Intellectual Property Rights of any
Third Party in or to any Intellectual Property relating to the Additional Licensed Technology. 
  

 11 








 6.9 Infringement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the terms of the Additional Exclusive
License Agreement shall govern the prosecution and defense of any actions relating to any alleged infringement of the Additional Licensed Technology by third parties or any alleged infringement of third party Intellectual Property by the Additional
Licensed Technology. 
 6.10 Other Research. MBI acknowledges that: 
  

	(a)	UHN (for purposes of this Section 6.10, namely personnel, staff and employees other than the Principal Investigators); and 

  

	(b)	the Principal Investigators; 

 have received
and/or shall continue to receive, funding from other sources (in addition to the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (“CIHR”) funding to be applied to the Additional Research Program) to conduct similar and/or related research to
that contemplated by the Additional Research Program. MBI acknowledges that it shall not have any claim to the work product of the other sources of funding (other than CIHR funding within the Additional Research Program) in law or otherwise, other
than the option described in Section 6.11 below or as may be separately negotiated and agreed to by the Parties. 
 6.11 Option for
Independent Inventions. 
  

	(a)	UHN hereby grants to MBI a right of first negotiation for an exclusive, royalty-bearing license, with the right to grant sublicenses without consent, for the
commercialization of any Intellectual Property pertaining to prognostic mRNA expression-based tests for use in the clinical management of lung cancers, developed by UHN during the term of this Agreement independently of the Additional Licensed
Technology and the Additional Research Program (each, an “Independent Invention”), exercisable in accordance with Subsection 6.11(b), provided that such right of first negotiation and any resulting license will be subject to
Section 6.12. 

  

	(b)	UHN will provide MBI with written notice disclosing each Independent Invention promptly after UHN files a Patent application for such Independent Invention, which
notice shall be accompanied by sufficient data and other information to enable MBI to evaluate such Independent Invention (a “Notice of Independent Invention”). MBI will have a period of six (6) months after receiving each
Notice of Independent Invention from UHN to provide written notice to UHN of its intent to license the disclosed Independent Invention (“Notice of Intent”). If UHN does not receive a Notice of Intent within such six (6) month
period, MBI’s right of first refusal will lapse and UHN shall be free to license or otherwise exploit the Independent Invention in its sole discretion without any further notice to MBI, and MBI shall have no further claim on, or to, the
Independent Invention. After a Notice of Intent has been received, both Parties shall diligently and in good faith negotiate the addition of such Independent Invention to the Additional Exclusive License Agreement or the licensing thereof under a
separate license agreement. Any such separate license shall be on terms and conditions that are consistent with other such licenses within the industry and satisfactory to UHN. If the Parties have not agreed on the license agreement within nine
(9) months of receipt of a Notice of Intent, UHN shall be free to license or otherwise exploit the Independent Invention in its sole discretion, on terms not more favourable to the licensee than the most favourable terms offered to MBI, without
any further notice to MBI, and MBI shall have no further claim on, or to, the Independent Invention. 

  

	(c)	This Section 6.11 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year. 

 6.12 Third Party Rights. Each right of first negotiation and each license granted to MBI by UHN in and to any Independent Inventions under
Section 6.11 will be subject to the following Third Party Intellectual Property Rights: 
  

	(a)	for any Independent Invention developed by one or both Principal Investigators or those UHN employees, personnel, staff and students under their direct supervision:


  

	 	(i)	any Third Party Intellectual Property Rights existing on or before October 19, 2007 (the “Reference Date”), and 

  

 12 









	 	(ii)	any Third Party Intellectual Property Rights arising after the Reference Date pursuant to a research program initiated and funded from inception by a Third Party
pursuant to a written research agreement; and 

  

	(b)	for any Independent Invention developed by any UHN employees, personnel, staff or students, other than those noted in Subsection 6.12(a), any Third Party Intellectual
Property Rights. 

 For each Independent Invention for which MBI has a right of first negotiation, UHN and MBI shall cooperate and
work together, prior to any Third Party being granted any interest in the Intellectual Property Rights in such Independent Invention, to review the merits of any claims made by any Third Parties to the Intellectual Property Rights in such
Independent Invention. For each Independent Invention for which MBI has delivered a Notice of Intent, and for which no Third Party claim is substantiated, UHN and MBI shall in good faith negotiate a license to MBI for the Intellectual Property
Rights in the Independent Invention. UHN shall keep MBI apprised of any facts that may arise from time to time where a Third Party may have or make a claim to Intellectual Property Rights in any Independent Invention. If a Third Party makes an
unsubstantiated claim to Intellectual Property Rights in an Independent Invention, UHN and MBI shall cooperate on the appropriate course of action to defend against any such claim or challenge, restrain or enjoin any Intellectual Property Rights
asserted by the Third Party in UHN’s discretion, acting reasonably, and in good faith in order to protect MBI’s interests in such Intellectual Property Rights. UHN shall take the lead in discussions with any Third Parties relating to any
such claims; provided that, in the unlikely event of litigation, MBI shall have the right to control any such litigation, including the right to settle any dispute in any manner it deems expedient, and UHN shall reasonably assist MBI in connection
therewith. 
 6.13 Current Research of Principal Investigators. UHN represents and warrants that, as of the Reference Date and continuing
to the Effective Date, the Principal Investigators and those UHN employees, personnel, staff and students under their direct supervision have not developed, and/or are not developing (other than in respect of the Licensed Technology and the
Additional Licensed Technology and the technology being developed under the Research Program and the Additional Research Program) any technology or Intellectual Property similar to the Additional Licensed Technology specifically encompassing
prognostic mRNA expression-based signatures to be used in the clinical management of lung cancers, other than that listed in Schedule D attached hereto (which information MBI shall keep strictly confidential as per the confidentiality provisions
outlined in Article 5 hereto). 
 6.14 Current Research of Other UHN Researchers. UHN represents and warrants that, to the best of
UHN’s knowledge as on the Effective Date, no UHN staff member, researcher or employee (excluding the Principal Investigators and those UHN employees, personnel, staff and students under their direct supervision) has developed, and/or are
developing, as of the Reference Date and continuing to the Effective Date, any technology or Intellectual Property similar to the Additional Licensed Technology specifically encompassing prognostic mRNA expression-based signatures to be used in the
clinical management of lung cancers. 
 ARTICLE 7 - INDEMNIFICATION 
 7.1 Mutual Indemnity. Subject to Article 8 below, each Party agrees to be responsible and to assume liability for its acts or omissions, and those of
its officers, agents, personnel, employees, staff or students, arising out of or as a result of, or in connection with the conduct of the Additional Research Program, to the full extent required by law. A Party that is negligent or that breaches
this Agreement agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the other Party harmless from liability resulting from its negligence or breach, including, without limitation, legal fees and costs, except to the extent caused by the other Party, and each Party
agrees to maintain reasonable insurance coverage for such liabilities.

Act, 1991 (Ontario) and the arbitrator shall also be empowered to hear injunctive proceedings in accordance therewith. 

  

	(b)	Notwithstanding Section 11.5 below, the arbitrator may include in its award an order as to the payment of the costs of the proceedings and reasonable counsel fees.
Any Party ordered to pay costs may avail itself of any procedure for the taxing of costs, provided, however, that the Parties specifically agreed that the officer taxing such costs need not be bound by any statutory scale of costs.


  

	(c)	The arbitrator will make its decision in writing within fifteen (15) days of the hearing and, unless the Parties otherwise agree, the arbitrator’s reasons
will be set out in the award. The award shall be final and binding on the Parties and shall not be subject to any appeal although either Party may request clarification of the award and the arbitrator’s reasons. 

  

	(d)	The Parties consent to the award of the arbitrator being entered in any court having jurisdiction for the purposes of enforcement. In addition, if it appears to any
Party that the arbitrator lacks the power to give effective interim relief, such Party may apply to any appropriate court for such relief. 

  

	(e)	All matters in dispute, all claims, submissions, evidence and findings, and the award itself shall be kept confidential by the arbitrator, and no information regarding
any of the foregoing will be released to any Third Party or otherwise made public without the written consent of the Parties, except as otherwise contemplated herein and except for such information which is not Confidential Information.

agree that the officer taxing such costs need not be bound by any statutory scale of costs. 

  

	(b)	All meetings and hearings will be in private unless the Parties otherwise agree. 

  

	(c)	Any Party may be represented at any meetings or hearings by legal counsel or any other advisor.
